Yep. You see a ton of circle jerking going on, since everyone is afraid to be down voted.

True in the British Army.

In the US Army a CO (Commanding Officer) is the officer in command of a military unit.

Does getting up at 7 to look at wedding venues all day with my future in-laws count? PS, it's 2 degrees Fahrenheit out. Now, that might not seem bad for our Canadian friends, but I've been living in civilization for the last 5 years.

I swear it got a little quieter with them.

+1. It is quieter for sure.

Same temperature here today.

While not the coldest I've seen this year, still unenjoyable. Not looking forward to running a bunch of errands today.

That sounds like a nightmare. You know you have to go, but you have absolutely no say on anything.

UPDATE: We are done looking at venues for today. Between today and yesterday, we looked at 7. Now my fiance is dress shopping with her mother and I will shortly be helping her father build a garage. At least its now 6 degrees and sunny...

I do actually have a say, since the other option is in Pennsylvania near where we live. I'm in New England right now. Doing it up here is my part of the compromise. Luckily we found one we both liked a lot.

I take back what I said about this temperature not being the worst.

It is the worst, as I was walking to my car when I finished at the mall, I got a headache from the cold.

Is it also windy? I bet it's also windy.
